Byron Magee, 22, is accused in Wednesday's robbery of the Kangaroo Express on Old Canton Road, police said. Magee allegedly used a shotgun to rob the store after his credit card was declined, police said.

Thursday, Ole Miss sent out an alert to students and staff to be on the lookout for Magee, who the school said is a student at Ole Miss, because he was wanted for armed robbery in Jackson and was possibly in the Oxford area.

A spokesman for the Hinds County Sheriff's Office said Magee was expected to surrender to police, but was taken into custody by MBN agents first.

Magee was being questioned Friday at Jackson Police Department headquarters. He is expected to face armed robbery charges.
